Time was, when a tiny soul,
Clothed with flesh and bone
Entered my life and carved
Its image upon my heart.
What lies ahead? Asks my heart.

Lift Off!

Dear Son,

Well, today is the day that we fly to LA; that is,of course, unless Northwest cancels our flight due to Pilot sick-leave. Whew! The times we live in! Nothing seems certain.

Sometimes words simply fail. Put to music, however, they soar! May these beautiful lyrics and tones support us as we begin this new journey.

THE PRAYER Charlotte Church and Josh Groban

I pray you'll be our eyesAnd watch us where we goAnd help us to be wiseIn times when we don't knowLet this be our prayerAs we go our wayLead us to a placeGuide us with your GraceTo a place where we'll be safeLa luce che tu daiI pray we'll find your lightNel cuore resteraAnd hold it in our heartsA ricordarci cheWhen stars go out each nightL'eterna stella seiNella mia preghieraLet this be our prayerQuanta fede c'eWhen shadows fill our dayLead us to a placeGuide us with your graceGive us faith so we'll be safe.Sogniamo un mondosenza piu violenzaUn mondo di giustizia e di speranzaOgnuno dia la mano al suo vicinoSimbolo di pace e di fraternitaLa forza che ci daiWe ask that life be kindE'il desiderio cheAnd watch us from aboveOgnuno trovi amoreWe hope each soul will findIntorno e dentro a seAnother soul to loveLet this be our prayerLet this be our prayerJust like every childJust like every childNeeds to find a place,Guide us with your graceGive us faith so we'll be safeE la fede cheHai acceso in noiSento che ci salvera

I sometimes play this song over and over again. God's blessing as you go Diane. I know that He has gone before you making straight the path that your son will follow. I am holding you all in my prayers.

This is one of my favorite songs. I just love it. You tube has a video of ice skaters skating to the song as well that I love.

I also have some prodigals...three. I pray constantly for them and have started a little box. When I pray I then drop their name on a piece of paper in the box. The box is God's box... I give them to God.
